Election

Post by Sparrow » March 1st, 2016, 3:23 pm

The Election

Mud slinging name calling candidates,
they claim to be proud Americans.
China would not dispose of their trash,
It's too toxic for their environment.
Looking for the one with integrity,
Nope, can't seem to find that in politics.
See past the shit….
See past the money….
Our elected house and congress.
They bicker and fight like cats and dogs.
All for power and money.
All to control and keep the loonies on the path.
To them we are all loonies.
Damm them all!
If only all politicians would remember.
If you sling mud you get your hand dirty.
I would not shake it.
"Important encounters are planned by the souls long before the bodies see each other." Paulo Coelho

I wouldn't either.

On the highest levels, I can choose Option Sold-out A or Option Sold-out B, but I have virtually zero say in what the federal government does on the national and world stages with my confiscated money. Virtually zero. De.mock.racy.

tragically it's all for show....the players at the top are so big, we won't ever learn their names....at this juncture all we get is a dog and pony show....that's just to keep us quiet and hopeful on some level that democracy actually works...it's very difficult for Americans to give up the dream....the reason the voting numbers are so low, is because most don't believe it matters.....and they're right.....
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
